Too regular

Researchers at the University of Montreal wanted to study men in their 20s and porn.

The usual scientific standard would be to recruit a group of men in the target demographic who have regularly watched porn, and a group men in the target demographic who haven't watched porn, and then expose the two groups to whatever tests the researchers had carefully designed.

And that's where the whole idea fell apart.

They couldn't find any men in their 20s who hadn't regularly watched porn.
